but when he convened with the stakeholders that served the county group they were part of the conversation. >> so we had guardians and parents present that's great. i think did we have student voices as part of the program >> that i can't speak. >> i think it would be helpful now we're separating the two and there maybe a different focus over and over something to add so thank you very much. next. commissioner wynns >> thank you. okay. so i that seems like the request from the state we had a separate l cap from the board of education is a bureaucratic mistake i think they don't understand so i'm going i want

to study this but i want us to write them a letter and say okay. we did that but our county of succession e education is sgrathsd with our school district this is about spending money we spend lots of money out disgust before you get u budget those students are our students i'd like them to be more integrated not separated so i think as a matter of policy we ought to or your opinion okay. we've done this so mr. and mrs. bureaucrat is no the the the reason we did this in the first place >> are you saying i'll write to

mr. and mrs. bureaucrat. >> so commissioners, i actually will go to the staff and confer with the county superintendent but actually we'll talk about that and bring that to the policy committee and then we'll craft a letter as well. >> great we'd be compliant by passing this that doesn't mean 53 we should follow-up this is i want us to do it the way you want it not put $0.50 in this budget and 20 in the next. >> thank you also deputy superintendent please note the commissioners request to add in our labor partners s c a u and u s f f.

>> i don't think that's a problem i want to make sure that commissioner the comments you made that wasn't disregard the distinction is there's a specific group of organizations working with the district several of the organizations that are listed that coordinated a specification community process and usa f and the other one participated in some of the activities around community engagement around the l cap but not organized through the district and not originated through that effort so they have a forum and members of the district and commissioners attend that that was a parallel effort for the district

connected effort per say it's might be splitting hairs but that's the intention behind the list there's no problem in the eyes of the organization i wanted to comment why the list appears as that appears as far. >> thank you superintendant commissioner maufas. >> so in the regards to mr. and mrs. bureaucrat conversation. so i understand the superintendant policy and operations and i'm going to seem but i'm actually asking have we had legal council weighing in on the separation of the the entities and why we've done such is there any opinion?

>> there's not. >> okay. continue on to the letter to mr. - and no opinion that's very helpful >> maybe i misconstrued the opinion and we didn't ask if you personally - >> (laughter). >> the question is should we look at the question of the legal requirement but i'll look at it. >> good commissioner maufas. any more comments from the board roll call vote >> mrs. jones. commissioner chin oar commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell. dr. murase. commissioner norton >> ms. wynns. president fewer. 6 ice

but i want to apologize this should you have been on the last board meeting of june and it wasn't those restraining order that basically k things done every year for auditors and school services is an annual contract and the third one was kevin harper and we use him sporadicly. i was told they basically missed the end and this was submitted a month ago and not on the agenda i i'll it should have been on the june agenda it will never happen again and i guess it stuck out one was a significant amount for $210,000 i want to

make sure we especially toe continue on an annual reluctant get in on time thank you >> i'm sure they live in the fire chief. >> but that's our cpas d t d and at least the the fee didn't comboip so that's good (laughter). >> it's good news. >> i think we're ready for a vote. >> commissioner wynns. i know that we've been very happy with our auditors because ourist are great can you for the record can you tell us the industry practice for how often we ought to look at changing auditors or reboyd the contract or reevaluating it i have no

question with the auditors but should we think this is routine rolled over every year >> we've have a good relationship with the auditors and you mentioned and we did go out to bid there are basically if you companies that don't want those bids a lot of cases it becomes very costly event for some. i was surprised but i wasn't with the district very long how few people were interested? assignment. they change partners every 3 years and mr. dan i presume will be up this year at the end of 2014-2015 so they do p do that.

they've been very good and understand the district i've been satisfied but we can go out for a bid and see what happens i can't say how helpful they've been >> i appreciate that that's the answer we want the same person do it the same year after year so thank you. >> thank you, sir. i think we're ready for a vote >> ms. jones. mr. chin. commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell. no. dr. murase. ms. norton. ms. wynns. president fewer. that's 5 i's >> thank you item q the first reading. the nexus resolution arising to

speakers commissioners any questions or comments >> yes. commissioner norton. >> so i'm going to support this recommendation i had to get my head around it and the student assignment committee whatever that was but i do feel like we need to still keep thinking about how you to attract robust enrollment at willie brown and i definitely hope i'd like to have the board get an update on the problematic work maybe as item m the project manager has reached out to me but this is an important conversation it should come to the board and be on the radio but i'm wondering superintendent if you can tonight shed light to attract a

more robust and better enrollment to the willie brown. >> thank you commissioner norton we do have a multi departmental team that meets regularly and working on a comprehensive plan at willie brown we can have a date of a vesting but it relates specifically to attracting students to willie brown we're discussing a number of initiatives one of the initiatives we're talking about has a suggestion to the board members can we incentivize students with willie brown with perhaps priority to high schools in the city. so we're exploring that particular idea as well and, of course, we want to make sure when we bring a recommendation to the board we've considered all the legal and procedural

issues involved with that. we're also looking at in terms of our outreach having a multi lingual outreach plan that is very far along in its development we're not waiting for parents to come to meetings we're going out into the community and i would say going to parents and families where they not only worship but live and they come together. so we're working on that plan and engaging our cb o partners and various organizations in that county to help us with the outreach and we're looking at the problematic aspects of willie brown is second to none in terms of the stem focus that will be there we have a full community approach we'll have wellness clinics and 0 vision and working on dental and social

services and partnering with the 71 to flush that out and working on a full music program at willie brown as well there are a number of things when the community is able to understand what willie brown middle school will look like it will be hard to say no to attend willie brown that's a thump nail i don't know if the superintendent wants to add anything >> i think your superintendant gave a broad and comprehensive look at the components of the educational program as well as the supports we want to make available to our students and families we want to make sure that this school it gives us an exciting opportunity to model our programming we want to have

across our middle school grades. and given this smaller program welcoming the sixth grade placing class and we talk about often the opportunities we want to give the students to stack lack language and arts and i'll the option that our families and students find attractive so the good thing we gave ourselves a year to get into the planning and soon will be coming to you with the initial outlines and it's involving sort of across the departmental efforts and with external partnerships to make sure that a lot of those aspects materialize so we look forward to coming up to you with that and artist facts we're

excited about to share with the broader community and with our enrollment fair to provide a visual for potential parents about what they can expect at the school site this includes not only the physical plant and sort of the rendering of that building as a it continues to take shape out in the bayview but other questions the parents have >> thank you deputy superintendent. i know there is a deadline parents are looking at the enrollment that's a topic the decision quite frankly from memorial day to high school so how hand soon can we report that to our community about the programs. that we're going to be having at

the new willie brown middle school. so we've had extensive updates but not updated on the outreach plan and also the program i've been talking to parents when i'm in the bayview they've asked me what is it going to be like the wow. about it. i think we have a lot of wow. plan we're anxiously waiting to hear about the wow. plan i want to add into commissioner nortons plan i'm going to support that but i want the superintendant to bring back to the board a proposal on how the district plans to difference and have a responsibility enrollment at willie brown we know we're going to have a fabulous middle school and tell the public if

they invest in this school that will be a great experience for the children in the middle school i'm requesting the superintendent came back to the board talking about diversity and a a foundation for continued success at those schools i mean willie brown >> commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell you have a question. >> i have a question i'm going to support this i'm curious on the schools we're going to be giving preference to so most of the them made sense but i'm curious about petaluma and another school. >> so in choosing the schools gordon was one the schools where

a significant number of children attend that school and where their academic outcomes and their mass and e l a scores are above the proficient rating a that's how that school was chosen and in petaluma geographys and other priorities and schools in 41924 we look to see which schools had the lowest number of requests for the middle school feeder it was morlum and we looked at the geography where it's placed in relation to willie brown and we'll add a bus to provide opportunities for children to attend willie brown. so this was the logic behind it

>> with the middle schools where those schools would have been feeding into so that will open up how will that be managed in terms of i don't have a larger number of the kids going like fwen e director heinecke man for example what's going to happen at director heinecke man not. were going initially but as the school builds up there might be a different outcome for director heinecke man what does that mean with one of the feeders. >> so they'll continue to have director heinecke man as their feeders wore not taking away anything from the students if we request director heinecke man they'll get the tiebreaker to director heinecke man and if they request willie brown they could get a tiebreaker this is

though the permanent we can assess the impact on the patterns and our opportunity to create a robust and difference enrollment and come back to the board before the patterns kick in. >> we're clear we're starting with the single request level so any families that are at director heinecke man who feel they want to be at brown who - we're not entertaining that it's part of the sixth grade. >> that's correct. >> commissioner maufas. >> thank you i'm going to support this seems like everyone is saying this i didn't want people so think i wasn't i'm

happy to hear the superintendents talk about the planning process and really focusing in on the diverse type of outreach and the student assignment meeting i appreciate you repeating that here. and if we come forward to the board with this as an item m i hope it can be an expended item we allow for room in our agenda to talk about flu fully what's happening at willie brown i know it's televised 101 on the radio but i think this the precedent for us recent in the year i'd love to give the time and energy this deserves.

to do outreach i'd like to hear from the community to speak to the audience that's linking in i live close to caesar chavez in the mission not in regards to a elementary school but i think the families in the area where i live go to mri aluminum so i see the other way being a choice i think about your comments commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell by the time they get to middle school willie brown could be an option for the families that live on the edge of 92474 where

caesar chavez is thoroughfare between the mission and fair view is something i want to support and those are any comments thank you president fewer and staff and all the community members that are joining in the process with us i appreciate that the outreach has been great and say a meeting in action i am surprised and i'm impressed thank you very much. supervisor >> i want to say how historic it is to 0 open a brand new middle school in the spirit of the vision 2025 exercise that was led over a the past year i want to recognize staff for thoughtful and deep work around what we want willie brown to look like. i just had two comments one i

want to be sure there's a language component available another willie brown historically that's under those circumstances not been in this part of town and again looking at the 21st century student we want to it emphasis the importance of culture competency and earlier i spoke to the students around the state times and the need that teenagers have for more sleep in the morning i'm hoping willie brown will help us to adjust our sleep time around learning i want to emphasize how excited i am and i'm be supporting in >> commissioner wynns. >> thank you. i want to follow up on the issue of city hall's

advertise s schools when does the feeder pattern kick in next ye year? i mean for the following year. >> it's for the 17, 18 school year. >> oh, because we should be the one thing that makes me nervous although i'm supportive of it i can't see any other way to do it obviously but it's for some of the feeder patterns is taking longer for them to take hold. so i just think we should be aware if we, you know, we may be need to look for other ways to encourage people to make sure they get all the information about the feeder middle school

how their children have are doing and come back or whatever we need to have focused outreach and information we should acknowledge this might make that more confusing if they make it a priority into two different schools it is to acknowledge we have competing tension we want people to have the services at willie brown and participation to if we think that you know how if this is undermining the other 2350erd patterns and see if we can't do something about that >> thank you commissioner wynns. >> i want to follow up i think upper talking about mri aluminum and it makes
